Today was a short day, but a productive one! We have spent some time over the last few days talking about checking for understanding when we read. As we read, we take random breaks and think about what we have read through summarizing, asking questions, and retelling.
Here is a poster we have been using. Starting next week, each student will have these in bookmark version that students will keep with their book bins. Feel free to print this out and use this at home as well during their home reading time. Don't limit checking for understanding to only these questions - make up your own!
